Chai Spice Hemp Smoothie

Technically, this isn't a "chai" smoothie, since "chai" means tea in some languages, and there's no tea in this.... but it does use the spices that are used in some variations of Masala chai - Indian spiced tea.

It's a great recipe, but a bit on the heavy side, filled with thick cashew cream, Daiya cheese, potatoes, etc. This recipe is very… Continue reading Quick & Easy Vegan Corn Chowder
